Ah!  Now it becomes clear.  I suggest changing the message printed
on make uninstall from 'this doesn't work, go away' to 'use
ExtUtils::Install instead'.

Or even have it call that module directly (after printing a reminder
that you don't really need the source package in order to uninstall).

Right.

OK, I'll see if my 'install random extra files in random places' code
can be made to behave nicely with packlists.
